Hey, it's a dorm



We've posted photos of the new dorm at 35 Cooper Square and East Sixth Street in various states (like here and here).

Anyway, we just realized that we haven't posted a photo of the (almost) FULLY REVEALED dorm. So here you go.

And, as previously reported, the dorm will house students from Marymount Manhattan College, which is nowhere near here.

A news release from the school in April 2014 said students will be moving in for the fall 2015 term...

As for the rest of the release....

Cooper Square will be an all-encompassing, apartment-style residence hall for sophomore, junior, and senior residents. The new residence hall will be located on the corner of Cooper Square and East 6th Street, otherwise known as one of the most trendy and artistic locations in all of New York City. The 12-story residence will include a floor-wide student lounge, a robust fitness center, a study room, and a beautiful terrace on the 7th floor. The new residence hall is located just a few minutes from the 6 train, where students can quickly make their way up to the Upper East Side for class, or can bike uptown thanks to a bicycle storage room.

And two of the renderings from the release...

    Does it take a 19 year old a few minutes to walk 2 block?

  2. Guy: "Hey, here I am in my dorm room, completely devoid of any personal belongings! I think I like Michael Jackson! If that plant weren't clip art it would be dead by the end of the semester!"

    Girl: "Wow, a blog all about the East Village! I wonder what they think about our supercool new dorm!"

  3. wow, the $ value of the Standard Hotel just dropped by a mil' or two. And when the kids arrive in Sept, it'll drop a few more mil'. Can't imagine anyone wanting to book a room in the Standard's north side where students will be staring inside your window, and you could reach out and touch them. Bankruptcy can't be more than a couple years off for that hotel... again.

    Well, it'd make a pretty nice dorm…
